Created : v6.5

String = IElement.Designation

IElement.Designation = String

Description

This property allows to get or set the designation of the element.

To remove the explicit designation of an element, just set it equal to an empty string.

Remarks

When an element has no explicit designation, an automatic designation is generated when getting the designation through this property, made with :

- A specific method when available (for instance for the standard components).

- Otherwise the name of the element, if it has gone one.

- Otherwise the identifier of the element prefixed with '@'.
